It was said that he was smoking, but everyone in the editorial department knew that these were just words, and the two of them must have run to the reception room to carefully scrutinize the name.

But there is no way to envy it, after all, it is someone else's manuscript, and the editor-in-chief also attaches great importance to this work, which makes the starting point of this work much higher than that of ordinary works.

Hook took the name, went to the reception room, took out the name, and read it carefully from the first page.

When he saw the last page, Hook fell into deep thought.

Wang Wenhong didn't dare to make a sound, and his eyes never left Hook.

There was silence for about five or six minutes before Hook got up and walked out of the reception room, and in a few moments he came in with two cups of coffee.

"What do you think?" Hook asked rhetorically.

"Uh...... I think it's generally good, but after reading it, I always feel a little strange, and I don't feel very sure...... Not very stable. Wang Wenhong said with some concern.

"I know how you feel, but I don't think the same way as you." Hook took off his glasses, pulled out his handkerchief, and wiped the lenses.

"Huh? What do you mean? Wang Wenhong asked rhetorically.

"I don't think it's cool enough."

"Huh?"

In the second episode, there is a plot of Jin Tengguang and Shi Liang trying to play Go. From the mouths of others, the reader can easily judge that Shi Liang has a high strength among his peers, but he lost to Jin Tengguang. The reader usually thinks from the perspective of the protagonist, which is the sense of substitution in the work, so the protagonist wins in the end, and the reader will be happy.

"The first three episodes of a work are considered the most important part of a manga, because readers will judge the direction of a work based on the first three words of the comic. If this comic is intended to please readers, there can't be only one place for 'cool points'. The first three words should just be the opening topic, not what Mr. Shen really wants to draw. ”

Wang Wenhong rubbed his chin, "However, I think the pace of this comic will be fast." first raised Shi Liang's identity, and the next moment the protagonist made a move and defeated Shi Liang, reflecting Zuo Wei's awesomeness from the side. Moreover, in the third episode, Zuo Wei also tried his hand at the knife, and as soon as he made a casual move, he cracked a chess game. This should also be a plot that readers will love...... I can't figure out what Mr. Shen will do next. ”

Hook folded his arms over his chest, pondered for a moment, and then shook his head, "It's hard to say. Just look at the name of the three words, and still can't judge the trend of the story...... "Chess Soul" is not the same as the works you usually see, and there are many possibilities in the future. However, it should be no problem to go through serialization. ”

By the way, Mr. Shen also made a request. He has to go to the Go dojo to collect materials, and he has to find a professional chess player as a consultant, so even if he passes, it is estimated that it will take a month or two before it can be published. Wang Wenhong reminded.

"Huh?" Hook was stunned for a moment, immediately read the name again, suddenly realized, and muttered, "This is not a comic with 'cool' as a selling point. Otherwise, it would be impossible for Mr. Shen to make such high demands. I'm very interested in Chess Soul right now, and I really want to know how the story will go next...... Xiao Wang, I want to discuss something with you. ”

"Huh?"

"How about giving me 'Chess Soul'?" Hook wiped his beard with one hand and smiled lewdly.

“……”

Wang Wenhong's mouth opened, and after listening for about five or six seconds, his mouth moved slightly.

Although Wang Wenhong didn't make a sound, Hook could judge the word Wang Wenhong was about to say from the shape of his mouth - get out.

There are many differences between large magazines and small magazines, and submitting serialized works is one of them.

Magazines like Neorld and Dreamer do not have team leaders, and the editor-in-charge and editor-in-chief usually decide on the serialization work together at the serialization meeting, but ComicFuture is different, and after getting the name, the editor-in-charge discusses it with the team leader, and then submits it to other team leaders and the people who want to attend the meeting. After reviewing it, they write comments on the back of the envelope before attending the serialization meeting.

After Hook put away the name, he went to the other team leaders and asked them to review the first three names of "Chess Soul".

The other team leaders also knew that the editor-in-chief attached great importance to this work, and they all made time to read the name of "Chess Soul".

Although Jian Xiaomei is also curious, as the editor-in-charge, she cares more about the quality of "Hunting Abyss".

After Ye Hexu informed her to pick up the manuscript, she knocked on the door of the studio as soon as possible.

Walking to Ye Hexu's side, before Jian Xiaomei could speak, Ye Hexu took off his headphones.

"The name of the latest episode is drying in the corner."

"Oh." Jian Xiaomei bowed slightly, put away the dried manuscripts in order, and stuffed them into the envelope, "What about the name of the next word?" ”

Ye Hexu opened the drawer on one side, took out another envelope, and handed it to Jian Xiaomei.

Jian Xiaomei pulled a chair and carefully read the name of the latest episode.

"Hunting Abyss" has been painted for more than a year, and after the story unfolds, it is gradually getting better. The protagonist who won the title of "Hunter" and his party entered the abyss and showed their own strength, and the storyboard of the big cut monster made the reader even more addicted.

But the name of the latest episode has a different plot, a monster after hunting a hunter, unexpectedly entered the hunter's body, thereby controlling his will, and followed the other hunters, leaving the hunting area.

Seeing this, Jian Xiaomei can almost be sure that the story of "Hunting the Abyss" will soon enter the second stage.

The corpse controlled by the monster leaves the hunting area, and the direction of the story becomes confusing.

Whether this monster was discovered by other hunters and killed, or whether it blended into the crowd and caused other events, no one could know until the next name appeared.

Jian Xiaomei suddenly had a sense of curiosity about the next story.

"Teacher Ye, the style of the story of the next episode of "Hunting the Abyss" seems to be changing."

"It hasn't changed much, has it? There is foreshadowing on the front. Ye Hexu explained.

"Recently, "Hunting the Abyss" has been maintained in third place, and if it changes rashly, I am not sure if it is good or bad." Jian Xiaomei said with a frown.

"Well, Jian Xiaomei, do you think I can keep in the third place all the time?" Ye Hexu turned his head to look at Jian Xiaomei.

"Probably not." Jian Xiaomei shook his head.

"That's it, it's better to make a change and rush to the first place." Ye Hexu chuckled.

"First place? That's "The Legend of the Dragon King". Jian Xiaomei said in surprise.

"I know, but I also have a chance, right?" Ye Hexu asked rhetorically, "By the way, you said a few days ago that the name of Mr. Shen's new comic is also coming out, right?" What do you think? ”

"I didn't see it. I only know that it is related to Go, and the team leaders have a high evaluation. Jian Xiaomei explained.

"I really hope that Mr. Shen can publish the comics sooner. "Y's" suddenly stopped, which made people feel bored. Ye Hexu stretched his waist and said boredly, "However, Teacher Shen is really a head." Is it really good to choose Go? If it's a love manga, I can still understand some, but Go is really too niche. ”

Jian Xiaomei also shook her head helplessly, although Shen Xin has won the "Newcomer Award", but in the face of a field that readers are not familiar with, Shen Xin can really create miracles?

She also felt doubts in her heart.
